ELM CORPORATE COUNCIL
ELM launched the ELM Corporate Council in 2010 to build a bridge between the environmental community and leading Massachusetts companies that have demonstrated innovative environmental policies or practices.
The ELM Corporate Council is a deep, working alliance between the private sector and environmental advocates to improve environmental policy and business practice in the Commonwealth. The Council represents a pro-business/pro-environment association. It underscores that we can have both a healthy environment and a vibrant economy — these goals are not at odds, but rather are mutually reinforcing.
In 2020, ELM founded the New England for Offshore Wind Coalition to support the timely and responsible development of this game-changing renewable energy resource.
To ensure brand identity, when speaking about New England for Offshore Wind, the full name ‘New England for Offshore Wind’ or the abbreviation ‘NE4OSW’ should be used.
